On October 7th, the world changed for many. In this special episode of the Meaningful People Podcast, we sit down with three individuals who witnessed the unthinkable on that tragic day.   Avi Kahn, an IDF soldier who fought on the front lines in Kfar Azza, shares his firsthand account of bravery, loss, and the strength required to push forward in the face of overwhelming adversity.   Yossi Landau, the southern commander of ZAKA, recounts the horrors he witnessed and the unimaginable atrocities he encountered while carrying out his sacred duty of providing dignity to the deceased.   Rav Shlomo Katz, a revered rabbi from Efrat, reflects on how he addressed his congregation during this difficult time, offering words of hope and faith on one of the holiest days of the year.   This episode is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit and a stark reminder of the challenges faced by those who protect and uplift their communities during the darkest of times.   Stay tuned for Part 2, releasing Motzei Simchas Torah.   Thank you to Alex & Karen Publishers for helping arrange this episode.
